The
last Friday Night Cruise of February, a beautiful cool night for the 161
beautiful cruisers to parade the streets of Old Town. We were glad to
welcome Sue back after her knee surgery. Lee was on hand to welcome us
in at 5 O'clock. He is doing a great job. We were followed in by Buzz
and Sue, Stan and Maryann, Dave and the rest of the early birds. We were
entertained on stage at 4 O'clock by the Brookstone High School Band
from Columbus, Georgia. Their bandleader was a former high school
teacher in Clermont. After we dined with Dave at A & W we headed out to
talk to some cruisers.
Chris Mohler from Orlando, just acquired this lovely 1975 Pontiac
Firebird Formula 350. It is snow flake white and has very unique Winter
Snow White seats. He is the second owner of this of this adorable
cruiser. He also has a 1981 Pontiac Trans AM Pace car. Daytona 500.
We only had 2 cruisers on block 4. This is the last night for cruiser of
the month, Tony Baugh and the other Loosers to lead the cruise
down the brick street of Old-Town. Joe Ness was back after a week off
but left early. Ken Keel was out visiting but not cruising. It was good
to see Ward and Marilyn back. She was under the weather last week, but
seems to be doing well now. We missed Bob Butler the last 2 weeks, we
were worried that he might be sick again but he was just vacationing on
the Keys and catching a lot of fish. We are glad he is back. We want to
thank him for bringing the cruise papers and also Bert when he brings
them.
Dennis who cruises his one owner Monte Carlo had his Mom with him
tonight. Her and her husband are down from Wisconsin to get out of the
cold weather. Debbie was back from Pa. and the snow. Allan was back at
the stage after a 2 week absence. Good job Allan. The Chrysler gang was
in their favorite spot and all was well for our Friday Night Cruise.
Our 50/50 was $37.00 and went home with Laverne. They got lucky tonight
and also won a flag.
A 2 night stay at a resort behind Old-Town was won by cruiser 736. These
are great prizes and thanks to these resorts. Joe pulled 6 numbers for
the Cruise-O-Matic and the $650.00 was won by cruiser 4568.
Thanks to Old Town and our great staff for another wonderful and safe
cruise. See you all next week.
